Jenn (Fenella) made a valiant effort today to save a little pug's life...we had it all set up to get him to rescue today, but he didn't make it that far even. He died in the car during the drive today.

RIP little Nibbles.

Jenn...thanks for all you did for him.

Jenn first thought maybe he broke his back (he was unable to walk, etc)...but now we're wondering if he got into poison...since he went so quickly. Jenn said that the little guy was running around the neighborhood loose all of the time.

Sad...all around.

I wasn't "chow bashing" All dog breeds can be "good" dogs with good owners.

But I would find it more likely to find a nice Pug then a nice chow, and Pug owners are rarely the "training type" that would make a good dog.

that was pretty much my meaning.

Yes, I was agreeing with you. Frankly some Chows scare the living crap out of me.

IMO they are the type of dog that takes an owner with a specific mind set. I personally adore Chows. If I could have one without all of the hair issues I would probably own several. The problem arises when they go to a home where the people cant maintain a strong minded dog. As with any breed most of what people hear or remember is the negative.
